ONGC Q1 Net Profit More Than Doubles on Higher Crude Oil Prices
State-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) reported a standalone net profit of Rs 17,034 crore in Q1 FY27, more than doubling from Rs 8,024 crore a year earlier, driven by a 50% rise in crude oil price realisations amid higher global prices. Revenue increased 45%, while production of crude oil and natural gas remained broadly stable but slightly declined. Consolidated net profit fell 43%, mainly due to losses at Hindustan Petroleum Corporation linked to under-recoveries from rising crude prices. ONGC expects production to improve with ongoing strategic projects.
